tomorrow is my last day at work. tomorrow i post about my job.
jose, little by little i will reveal the conversations we had.
jose was talking about his creative desire to be at the vanguard of novel research. he talked about telomeres.
"Inside the nucleus of virtually all of our cells are chromosomes, 46 in all. At the tips of these chromosomes are telomeres, repeating sequences of genetic material that shorten each time a cell divides. Cell division is important because many cells in our body (e.g., those that line our digestive tract) must be replaced over time. When a cell's telomeres reach a critically short length, however, that cell can no longer replicate. Its structure and function begin to fail as it enters this state of growth arrest, called replicative senescence. Some have likened the process of telomere shortening to a genetic biological clock that winds down over time. Today, researchers continue to probe the telomeric "timepiece," hoping to better understand the aging process and fight diseases, particularly cancer."

maureen dowd writes about men who are afraid of powerful women. i am married to an intelligent, beautiful, powerful woman. it doesn't bother me. but that's probably because i'm ridiculously masculine.
here are some sites that i look at every day

Bane, you are weaker than you realize. Of course, this is not your fault- you are using Tim as a point of reference. And because Jude is in Mississippi, you have forgotten how he dwarfs you. Finally, because I am too massive to fit through your door, you are deprived of this humbling reminder of your factual masculinity. True, your wife may be powerful, but just because she can slap Tim around, you should be careful to generalize.
